I agree the wiki needs changing too.  We can compile a list of pages
as part of the overall fixing that needs to happen.

I don't think we need text first -- I'm happy to write it, for
instance, but I would rather do that directly using our templates and
git.  I don't want to send people to the wiki for anything where not
necessary.  (I do agree we should fix the wiki... I'd just like to
avoid redirecting more people there.)

I made a whenisgood:  http://whenisgood.net/fedora-luc-websites

I think we probably only need Robert, Mo, and myself there, but I'll
also invite Jiří Eischmann who owns the Change and Ricky Elrod in case
they can attend.

I created a branch for it and have some ideas, for now only for prerelease.
Not sure if I can finalize it today, let's see. Do we have a date?
